Material: 100% PVC-free ABS Edge Banding
Available Options: Pre-Glued and Non-Glued
Recommended application: For application on panel edges, including MDF, plywood, particleboard, and laminate.
Installation (Non-Glued/Standard): Standard ABS edge banding requires a hot-melt adhesive system or edge banding machine for proper application. Contact adhesive is not recommended.
Installation (Pre-Glued): Pre-Glued ABS edge banding features a heat-activated adhesive. To install, gently warm the veneer using a heat gun—applying even, controlled heat along the entire length—to activate the adhesive without causing damage. Once activated, firmly press the edge band onto the substrate to achieve a secure bond.
Care & Maintenance: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasives, or solvents. Protect from prolonged water exposure, direct heat, and strong UV light to prevent discolouration. While impact-resistant, excessive force may cause damage.
Wet Area Suitability: Suitable for use in high-humidity environments such as kitchens and bathrooms but should not be exposed to prolonged water contact or submersion. For wet areas, ensure edges are properly sealed to prevent moisture ingress.
What is veneer edging?
In the cabinetry and furniture industries edging refers to a narrow strip of veneer placed around the edges of a panel or sheet. Manufacturers use edging (or ‘edge band’) to cover the exposed edges of raw panel substrates such as MDF or particleboard. The benefit of edging is two-fold. First, it’s visually more appealing. Once applied it creates the appearance of a solid material or an illusion of solid timber. And second, as it seals the exposed edge and improves the sheets resistance to moisture and damage.
